Dance With the Devil |
I once knew a nigga whose real name was William |
His primary concern, was making a million |
Being the illest hustler, that the world ever seen |
He used to fuck movie stars and sniff coke in his dreams |
A corrupted young mind, at the age of thirteen |
Nigga never had a father and his mom was a fiend |
She put the pipe down, but for every year she was sober |
Her son’s heart simultaneously grew colder |
He started hanging out, selling bags in the projects |
Checking the young chicks, looking for hit-and-run prospects |
He was fascinated by material objects |
But he understood money never bought respect |
He built a reputation 'cause he could hustle and steal |
But got locked once and didn’t hesitate to squeal |
So criminals he chilled with didn’t think he was real |
You see, me and niggas like this have never been equal |
I don’t project my insecurities on other people |
He fiended for props like addicts with pipes and needles |
So he felt he had to prove to everyone he was evil |
A feeble-minded young man with infinite potential |
The product of a ghetto-bred capitalistic mental |
Coincidentally dropped out of school to sell weed |
Dancing with the devil, smoked until his eyes would bleed |
But he was sick of selling trees and gave in to his greed |
Everyone trying to be trife never face the consequences |
You probably only did a month for minor offences |
Ask a nigga doing life if he had another chance |
But then again there’s always the wicked that knew in advance |
Dance forever with the devil on a cold cell block |
But that’s what happens when you rape, murder and sell rock |
Devils used to be gods angels that fell from the top |
There’s no diversity because we’re burning in the melting pot |
So Billy started robbing niggas, anything he could do |
To get his respect back, in the eyes of his crew |
Starting fights over little shit, up on the block |
Stepped up to selling mothers and brothers the crack rock |
Working overtime for making money for the crack spot |
Hit the jackpot and wanted to move up to cocaine |
fulfilling the Scarface fantasy stuck in his brain |
Tired of the block niggas treating him the same |
He wanted to be major like the cut-throats and the thugs |
But when he tried to step to 'em, niggas showed him no love |
They told him any motherfucking coward can sell drugs |
Any bitch nigga with a gun can bust slugs |
Any nigga with a red shirt can front like a blood |
Even Puffy smoked a motherfucker up in a club |
But only a real thug can stab someone till they die |
Standing in front of them, staring straight into their eyes |
Billy realized that these men were well-guarded |
And they wanted to test him before business started |
Suggested raping a bitch to prove he was cold-hearted |
So now he had a choice between going back to his life |
Or making money with made men, up in the cife |
His dreams about cars and ice made him agree |
A hardcore nigga is all he ever wanted to be |
And so he met them Friday night at a quarter to three |
They drove around the projects slow while it was raining |
Smoking blunts, drinking and joking for entertainment |
Until they saw a woman on the street walking alone |
Three in the morning, coming back from work, on her way home |
And so they quietly got out the car and followed her |
Walking through the projects, the darkness swallowed her |
They wrapped her shirt around her head and knocked her onto the floor |
«This is it kid, now you got your chance to be raw.» |
So Billy yoked her up and grabbed the chick by the hair |
And dragged her into a lobby that had nobody there |
She struggled hard but they forced her to go up the stairs |
They got to the roof and then held her down on the ground |
Screaming, «Shut the fuck up and stop moving around!» |
The shirt covered her face, but she screamed and clawed |
So Billy stomped on the bitch, 'til he broken her jaw |
Them dirty bastards knew exactly what they were doing |
They kicked her until they cracked her ribs and she stopped moving |
Blood leaking through the cloth, she cried silently |
And then they all proceeded to rape her violently |
Billy was made to go first, but each of them took a turn |
Ripping her up, and choking her until her throat burned |
Her broken jaw mumbled for God but they weren’t concerned |
When they were done and she was lying bloody, broken and bruised |
One of them niggas pulled out a brand new twenty-two |
They told him that she was a witness for what she’d gone through |
And if he killed her he was guaranteed a spot in the crew |
He thought about it for a minute, she was practically dead |
And so he leaned over and put the gun right to her head |
I’m falling and I can’t turn back |
I’m falling and I can’t turn back |
Right before he pulled the trigger, and ended her life |
He thought about the cocaine with the platinum and ice |
And he felt strong standing along with his new brothers |
Cocked the gat to her head, and pulled back the shirt cover |
But what he saw made him start to cringe and stutter |
'Cause he was staring into the eyes of his own mother |
She looked back at him and cried, 'cause he had forsaken her |
She cried more painfully, than when they were raping her |
His whole world stopped, he couldn’t even contemplate |
His corruption had successfully changed his fate |
And he remembered how his mom used to come home late |
Working hard for nothing, 'cause now what was he worth |
He turned away from the woman that had once given him birth |
And crying out to the sky 'cause he was lonely and scared |
But only the devil responded, 'cause god wasn’t there |
And right then he knew what it was to be empty and cold |
And so he jumped off the roof and died with no soul |
They say death takes you to a better place but I doubt it |
After that they killed his mother, and never spoke about it |
And listen 'cause the story that I’m telling is true |
'Cause I was there with Billy Jacobs and I raped his mom too |
And now the devil follows me everywhere that I go |
In fact, I’m sure he’s standing among one of you at my shows |
And every street cypher listening to little thugs flow |
He could be standing right next to you, and you wouldn’t know |
The devil grows inside the hearts of the selfish and wicked |
White, brown, yellow and black color is not restricted |
You have a self-destructive destiny when you’re inflicted |
And you’ll be one of god’s children that fell from the top |
There’s no diversity because we’re burning in the melting pot |
So when the devil wants to dance with you, you better say never |
Because a dance with the devil might last you forever |
Oh y’all motherfuckers thought it was over, huh? |
Well it’s not. |
You didn’t count on a fallen angel getting back into the grace of god and |
coming after you. |
Ya’ll niggas ain’t shit |
Your producers ain’t shit. |
Your fuckin' A &R ain’t shit. |
I’ll fuckin' wipe my ass with your demo deal. |
Yo, Diabolic, take this motherfucker’s head off! |
Go 'head and grip Glocks |
I’ll snap your trigger finger in six spots |
You’ll have to lip lock with hypodermic needles to lick shots |
I’ll watch you topple flat |
Put away your rings and holla back |
Can’t freestyle, you’re screwed off the top like bottle caps |
Beneath the surface |
I’m overheatin' your receiver circuits by unleashin' deeper verses than priests |
speak in churches |
What you preach is worthless |
Your worship defeat the purpose |
Like President Bush takin' bullets for the secret service |
Beyond what y’all fathom |
I shit on cats and jaw tap 'em |
Show no compassion like havin' a straight-faced orgasm |
Tour jack 'em |
Have his half-a-ten bitch suck my friend’s dick |
In the mean time, you can french kiss this clenched fist |
Diabolic |
A one-man brigade spreading cancer plague |
Fist-fuckin' a pussy’s face |
Holdin' a hand grenade |
So if I catch you bluffin' |
Faggot, you’re less than nothin' |
I just had to get that stress off my chest like breast reduction |
You motherfuckers are nothing, you cannot harm me |
I’ll resurrect every aborted baby and start an army |
Storm the planet huntin' you down, 'cause I’m on a mission |
To split your body into a billion one-celled organisms |
Immortal Technique’ll destroy your religion, you stupid bitch |
You’re faker than blue-eyed crackers nailed to a crucifix |
I’m 'bout to blow up like NASA Challenger computer chips |
Arsenic language transmitted revolutionarily |
I’m like time itself, I’m gonna kill you inevitably |
Chemically bomb you, fuck usin' a chrome piece |
I’m illmatic, you won’t make it home like Jerome’s niece |
I’ll sever your head diagonally for thinkin' of dissin' me |
And then use your dead body to write my name in calligraphy |
This puppet democracy brain-washed your psychology |
So you’re nothing, like diversity without equality |
And your crew is full of more faggots than Greek mythology |
Usin' numerology to count the people I sent to Heaven |
Produces more digits than 22 divided by 7 |
You’re like Kevin Spacey, your style is usually suspect |
You never killed a cop, you not a motherfuckin' thug yet |
Your mind is empty and spacious |
Like the part of the brain that appreciates culture in a racist |
Face it, you’re too basic |
You’re never gonna make it |
Like children walking through Antarctica, butt naked |
